Kink method of determining spontaneous magnetostriction of ferro- and ferrimagnetic materials
Kamilov I.K., Aliev Kh.K. , Magomedov M.R.M.
We show within the framework of the molecular field theory that temperature independent magnetostriction can be observed near the Curie temperature of ferromagnetic materials in weak magnetic fields. Experimental confirmation of this effect is given by using nickel and it is shown that this eiFect can be used to determine spontaneous magnetostriction.
